8x10 Rug, Handmade Ivory Moroccan Wool Carpet

$99.00

This 8x10 rug is a handmade Moroccan statement piece, sized to anchor a full living room or primary bedroom with room to spare. A cream and ivory wool ground is drawn over with fine brown grid lines and scattered with small freehand motifs in blue, green, orange, pink and aubergine - a calm, collectible field that rewards a closer look. Each carpet is hand knotted by the El Abbassi family in their workshops in Morocco's Rabat-Sale region, tied at 10 to 16 knots per square inch on an upright loom, then washed and sun dried. The abstract grid belongs to the Beni Ourain tradition, the Amazigh (Berber) weaving heritage of Morocco's Middle Atlas, and because the lines are drawn freehand no two rugs are ever identical. The dense shag pile, roughly 3 to 4 cm high, is deep and soft underfoot - 100% natural sheep wool that is warm, springy and built to last. Care is simple: vacuum on a gentle setting without the beater bar, spot clean with mild soap and cold water, keep it out of prolonged direct sun, and rotate it seasonally so it wears evenly. An annual professional clean keeps the wool bright. At roughly 8 by 10 feet, this size fills the space beneath a sofa and coffee table or floats a bed and nightstands on soft wool. The quiet palette and hand-knotted grid make it an easy anchor for farmhouse, boho and mid-century modern rooms, softening concrete and wood alike in dens, sunrooms and hallways. Woven to order and finished with hand-tied ivory fringe at both ends, your rug ships with free worldwide delivery included in the price - rolled, wrapped and fully tracked. Expect charming variations in pattern spacing and colour saturation; they are the mark of authentic handmade Berber craftsmanship, not a flaw.

Every rug is made by hand in the El Abbassi family workshops in Morocco's Rabat-Salé region. See how our rugs are made
